Wilson authorities say former Grace Missionary Baptist Church pastor, 52-year old Benjamin Joseph Martin, pretended his property was stolen and destroyed in a fire. But they say he actually sold some of it at a pawn shop.

He's now charged with insurance fraud. Martin also faces charges he made unauthorized purchases on the church's credit card.
